Writing Contest Announced

Five members met Tuesday evening, January 5, to celebrate the New Year and discuss plans for producing the VWG's own anthology.

Deadline for submissions is March 31, 2010.

VWG members may submit free. Non-members will be charged a $15 fee per submission. You may send your submission in either of two ways:

1. by email: Send your writing by email attachment in MS Word or RTF format to anthonygeraldmiller@gmail.com. Non-members please mail your check for $15 per submission (or $30 for membership; see Membership page) to:

Theme: "Love is where you find it." Writing that fits this theme will be given preference.

Size and price of the anthology will depend on how many entries of high literary quality we receive, and cost of production. We plan to have copies in time to sell them at the Decatur Book Festival, September 3-5, 2010.
